This is insane. 5 full course cautions, blown up cars, accidents and most of the field has penalties to serve after the finish. I'm not sure who won, but they are calling it the #33 Playboy 350z (the checkered came out while I'm typing this). This is possibly the wildest race I've ever seen.

Just missed it....a few minutes too late. I did see some Porsche slide WAY OFF TRACK and then come back on without hitting anything.

Yes I need to watch for the track line, but no incar shots (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rant.gif) . Only time of year I can sit down and watch a non-nascar race. Race car's on wet grass look to pickup speed. Did you see that BMW hit the tire wall and fence.

When it was green, it was interesting to watch. When it was yellow, I went out to the garage to fool with my own car. Got some work done, too.

Carnage! The Martinelli M3 that got tapped by the Caddy and went through two tire walls and almost a fence is toast. All nature of mayhem!
The guy that caused this damage: http://www.z28racergirl.com/images/LVDD11....ofrearwheel.jpg was running second or third for a few laps and got some tv time. Jason |
